# Turn console off and then on. # Clean the disc and examine it for flaws or scratches. # If this behavior occurs with one or two discs, search the Microsoft Knowledge Base for the specific game title(s). If you find a known problem, follow the information outlined in the article. # Delete the appropriate saved games. See Note 1. Copy a saved game to a Memory Unit (MU) if you have one available. # Try three other games, and then try the original game again. # Try the game on another console if possible. # Replace the disc at retailer. # Repair the console Note 1 If a saved game file is corrupted, it can produce a disk error message in that game, particularly when the game starts. You can resolve this issue by deleting all saved game files for the affected game from the Xbox hard disk. This method is effective approximately twenty-five percent of the time. If you experience this disk error message with more than two games, this procedure will likely not resolve the issue. Another trick to try is to turn your console so its vertical( sometimes works)

My x-box 360 doesnt play games but plays cd,dvd

DOes it read to play this game put in a xbox 360 console? If so someone replaced the original dvd drive and didnt flash the firmware or did it wrong. If it doesnt say that then its more then likely a dirty or broken laser. Very cheap part to replace they are on ebay just need to make sure which laser you have before buying one.
